    Just to add to all of this, in the latest GameWave magazine (it's a Japanese gaming magazine in case you haven't heard of it) they "confirm" VF4 Evolution and mention two new characters who fight using Judo and Muay Thai (or kick boxing?).

    In non-VF related news, they have screens of House of the Dead 3 which looks really nice.

    But best of all, Shinobi is making a comeback in 3D! Screenshots didn't give much away, but it looks sweet!

    Hmm. Muay Thai? That's kinda redundant with Vannessa Muay Thai stance, isn't it. /versus/images/icons/frown.gif
    Judo is alright I guess. /versus/images/icons/smile.gif

    Muay Thai? But Vanessa already have a MT stance. And Judo based mainly on throws, isn't it? Interesting how they integrate a Judo player into the game. Really looking forward to it.

    My initial reaction with Muay Thai was similar to yours (Ealsen, a_l_e_x) but then you have to remember Muay Thai is only half of Vanessa's arsenal, and might just be different enough in the way Lau and Pai have similarites but are completely different. Then again, the character may be like a rough kick boxer type. We'll see.

    Judo should be really interesting though. Probably have a lot of hit throws, throw combos, catch grabs.. hmm.. I wonder if it'll be a bit like a recycled Taka.

    Anyone know where the arcade show is? If it's not at Makuhari Messe (BFE) I might head down there. Anyone else planning on going?
